special last night
NEW YORK, October 28.-Alr. Hunt
ington made this explanation OF the
Chesapeake and Ohio receiyership to-
day "The Chesapeake and Ohio owes
me 81, 7G5, coo, which is al for money
loaned to the road from time to time,
and which has been applied TO the pur-
chase OF rails and rolling. stock and to
provide for interest obligations, pay
ment OF taxes, and generally keeping
the road in condition to do its bust
ness. 1t became evident last year that
the road could not carry the interest
obligations that rest upon it. and the
matter was carefully considered and
discussed and is very we'll known. 1t
seemed to be essential that there
should be reduction to per cent.
Of the interest on the 'B' bonds
This reduction has been generally
acquiesced in, the holders Of a large
majority OF the bonds having already
assented TO this reduction and the eI-
tension Of the bonds for one hundred
wears, and VIC have little doubt that the
balance will make tho exchange as
soon as they fully understand the situa-
ton, but as the road needs more money
toin part double track the road and make
additions to the rolling-stock it seemed
necessary that some plan should be de-
yised by tho shareholders TO raise
money for that purpose. II is not the
intention now to disturb the bonds, but
10 pay the interest on them as hereto
fore

In the third race, which was trottlng,

WAS centered the chief interest Of the
day. II was conceded that the contest
would he chiefly between Tribb, the
chestnut gelding, entered by ?. L.
Gentry, OF Richmond, and Kentucky
Girl, the bay mare Of J. ID. Mathews,
of Manchester, and on these betting
was quite large. The mare was the IA
vorite, and she carried about 81, 800.
Before the race began Mr. McCance,
OF Petersburg, the owner OF Vivid, en-
tered q verbal protest, claiming that
the mare had a record OF less than 40.
Mr.. Mathews claimed that the mare 3
record was 2:43i, and Mr.. Adams, one
OF the judges, stated that this was
given by race-books as her fastest. MIR.
McCsnce next protested on the ground
that the mares entrance-fee was paid
too late, and that for this reason she
was not eligible. II appeared that Mr..
Mathews paid his money at Secretary
venabie's office an hour aud half be-
fore the expiration OF the time allowed.
THIS led TO much discussion, and il was
